At the recent SciCodes Symposium, I brought up the question of reviewing research software during the panel discussion. One panelist then raised the question of why we should review research software. I found this question surprising at first, but I do agree that it deserves an answer. Here is mine.
This morning, having been re-reading and thinking extensively about Moore, Samuel, ‘A Genealogy of Open Access: Negotiations between Openness and Access to Research’, Revue Française Des Sciences de l’information et de La Communication , no. 11 (2017), https://doi.org/10.4000/rfsic.3220 but also the awful news in Tim Sherratt, ‘Update on Trove Data Access and My Suspended API Keys’, Tim Sherratt – Sharing Recent Updates and
Prácticas de exclusión durante la revolución rioplatense (1810-1820) por Marcela Viviana Tejerina La filósofa Chantal Mouffe entiende que, dentro de un campo de identificaciones colectivas, siempre ocurren actos de poder que dan lugar a un nosotros, delimitando un ellos que, de ser considerados diferentes, pueden aparecer negando nuestra identidad o cuestionando nuestra existencia y, de […]

Environmental DNA (eDNA) - the genetic material left by organisms in their environment - is increasingly used as an efficient and cost-effective method in surveys of species distribution and abundance. This emerging data type presents new opportunities and new challenges, particularly around interpretation and fear of false positive detections.

TL; DR: Underworld is now Singularity-enabled, making it easier and somewhat quicker to use compared to traditional HPC installs. We demonstrate results using over 10,000 CPUs and more than one billion unknowns for solving the Stokes equation with Underworld 2.16
This is our dog Eleanor. She’s a Great Pyrenees/German Shepherd mix, just over one year old. We rescued her last September — some heartless jerkbag had dumped her out out of a moving vehicle in a random neighborhood. Fortunately she was unhurt, but she needed a home, and here we are. I love her more than I love most people, and it’s only by deliberate exercise of will that I’ve waited this long to put any pictures of her up on this blog.
Published today in GigaScience is a new algorithm connecting social and biological networks to identify key proteins in Human Health. Researchers at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev have developed a machine-learning algorithm that could enhance our understanding of human biology and disease.
[Author's Note: This is Version 2 of this Editorial Blog Post. Version 1 was openly reviewed through MetaROR and this version reflects changes made as a result of those reviews. The response to reviewers is here.] Academia is undergoing a rapid transformation characterized by exponential growth of scholarly outputs.
A few months back, Upstream editor Martin Fenner suggested that I submit my Upstream blog post titled, Drinking from the Firehose? Write More and Publish Less , for peer-review as a sort of experiment for Upstream through MetaROR. MetaROR, a relative newcomer to the scholarly communication community, provides the review and curate steps in the "publish-review-curate" model for meta-research.
